Alphavirus nsP3 organizes into tubular scaffolds essential for infection and the cytoplasmic granule architecture

Abstract excerpt

Alphaviruses, such as chikungunya virus (CHIKV), are mosquito-borne viruses that represent a significant threat to human health due to the current context of global warming. Efficient alphavirus infection relies on the activity of the non-structural protein 3 (nsP3), a puzzling multifunctional molecule whose role in infection remains largely unknown. NsP3 is a component of the plasma membrane-bound viral RNA...
